Aggressive Behaviour in Great Danes
From the Rage Syndrome Information Center
This dangerous temperament disorder generally ends with the dog being euthanized.  Since it may be an inherited trait, breeders must take steps to identify and eliminate it from their blood lines.  Those looking to aquire a Great Dane should be well informed and check for the tendency of this disorder before taking a puppy home.
